This is the third single from Citi Zēni’s upcoming second studio album, making 2023 the band’s most successful year yet. Competing for Latvia in the Eurovision Song Contest in Turin in 2022, the band sadly did not advance past the First Semi-Final with their song “Eat Your Salad”. However, since the contest and the platform this has given them, Citi Zēni have gone on to success that they could never have imagined. The only way is up for the Latvian band.
